                  Last April, I went with my family to Hurghada. We went there to spend some enjoyable time.
            My father drove us there. It was a long drive, but we enjoyed watching the beautiful sceneries.
            We stayed for three weeks. We did a lot of interesting activities there.
                 We went swimming and snorkeling in the sea. Under water we saw many beautiful kinds of
            fish. The water of the Red Sea is warm and pure. I also went windsurfing with my brother. At
            first, I was frightened, but quickly I felt safe as my brother was careful and he encouraged me to
            feel safe.
                Every evening, we went shopping and visited some wonderful bazaars. A bazaar is a place
            where visitors such as tourists can buy wonderful souvenirs for their families and friends. There,
            I bought some souvenirs for my friends. I think it was a good experience for all of us so we're
            looking forward to visiting Hurghada next year.                                                                                   غٗشغٍ ىسشٍ
